Hello! Waiting sucks, but I’m trying to make the most of it. Actually, my back went out on Saturday so my mind has been elsewhere. I didn’t do anything to make it go out. I thought maybe too much resting caused it. But, it didn’t matter what I did, it hurt. It feels like it seizes up. Mostly after sitting, I’ll try to get up and I can’t. The pain was so bad. I needed help by Saturday night and all day Sunday. Sleeping sucked. Monday I was so bored out of my mind. All the plans I had for my relax and wait days off I couldn’t do because I was miserable.

Today (Tuesday) seemed slightly better. I am still in so much pain and seize up when I rise, but I didn’t need help besides the tables around me.

I called the Dr and he told me to walk for exercise and to just rest. He said I can take a Tylenol here and there and to rest! I tried a Tylenol, lol. Didn’t touch the pain. I am hoping it gets better every day. Everything happens for a reason, I believe, so I’m sure this is to help keep my mind occupied. As not great as the pain is, I guess I’ll take it. 🙁

I haven’t felt any cramping like last time. At least that I know of. The pain from the back has taken over. I was starting to get really worried last night and this morning because I haven’t felt the cramping. But, I’ve decided to believe that just because it doesn’t feel like last time, it isn’t a bad thing. Of course google tells me you could feel things or not feel things. So I won’t worry as much.

I’m definitely not taking any pregnancy tests until after my blood test.

Not sure when I will go back to work, I was supposed to go back today. But, I can’t worry about that right now. I just need to be healthy. This is my last chance and I’m being as careful as I can. Thank God my work is amazing!

Jay and my family have been great. They have been so helpful! Thank god for all of them! My 7 year old niece and 10 year old nephew actually helped me with house work, haha. They were happy to help. I Love them! ❤️

Okay, so I feel like I need double of everything now! No pun intended. 😜 because I need to feel better!!
